.54 not Harvard, but Heaven: the true goal of parenting (and other Advent thoughts) 🎄 12/02/2024

.54 not Harvard, but Heaven: the true goal of parenting (and other Advent thoughts) 🎄 Welcome back to Own Your Revival🔥 As we enter this time of slowing down, waiting and preparing for the birth of our Lord, which is opposite of everything we see, hear and experience in a culture that practically steps over the Thanksgiving holiday to push Christmas + consumerism, can we prepare our hearts to receive Jesus on Christmas? I humbly propose we move the needle off of productivity and checking all the lists twice to a healthy balance focused on maintaining presence with Christ in prayer and those we love on the daily. As we enter the sacred season of Advent, it's a time to step back and reflect on our journey, embracing the quiet moments that allow us to listen for God's voice amidst the busyness of life. This season invites us to grieve the losses that come with change—whether it's the evolution of family traditions or the growing independence of our children—while also creating space for meaningful connections. By prioritizing stillness and prayer, we can draw closer to Jesus, nurturing our hearts and those of our loved ones as we prepare for His coming. In this way, Advent becomes not just a countdown to Christmas, but a profound opportunity for spiritual renewal and familial bonding. Join me inside this episode (complete with a crackling 🔥 in the background) for more meditations on this. 📆 Podcast will pause for Advent after this episode until January 6, 2025.

.52 (guest) trauma-sensitive holidays 🎄: managing expectations & relationships with Mackenzie Reed, LPC Welcome back to Own Your Revival🔥 Do you long for the joy, connection and celebration of the holiday season, but struggle with waves of stress, anxiety, and (maybe) unresolved trauma? If so, you are not alone. The pressure to create the perfect holiday experience can lead to feelings of inadequacy, especially when family dynamics are complicated or past traumas resurface. As we gather with loved ones, the weight of expectations can amplify feelings of loneliness, disappointment, and emotional turmoil. In this episode of the Own Your Revival podcast, we delve into the heart of what makes the holidays so challenging. Our guest, Mackenzie Reed, a licensed professional counselor specializing in trauma, shares invaluable insights into how our brains respond to stress and trauma during this time of year. By understanding the different brain states—our primal instincts of safety, emotional connections, and executive functioning—we can begin to navigate our feelings more effectively. Mackenzie introduces trauma-sensitive tools that empower us to reclaim our peace and joy amidst the chaos. From mindfulness exercises that engage our senses to recognizing and challenging negative thought patterns, these strategies can help us create a more grounded and fulfilling holiday experience. Join us as we explore how to foster healthier relationships, set boundaries, and cultivate a sense of belonging, allowing us to embrace the true spirit of the season. 📆 Podcast will pause for Advent after December 2nd episode and resume on January 6, 2025.

.48 (guest) forged in faith: from inspiration to invitation with Mike Czyz, Andrew Munger, and Josh Fink Welcome back to Own Your Revival🔥 What role do mentorship and community support play in shaping one’s faith and journey through life? In this episode of the Own Your Revival podcast, Andy is joined by THREE special guests- Mike Czyz, Andrew Munger and Josh Fink- who will unpack the blessing of both in the creating of a transformative retreat experience for men. Hear from these three how the inspiration for the retreat became (in due time and with a little help from Matt Kleinschmitt) became an invitation to share the graces they received in service to other men in this unique experience for men: to be forged in faith together.

.46 (coaching) with Rachael Tvrdy on launching a new women's ministry Welcome back to Own Your Revival🔥 Have you ever wondered what coaching is really like? Well, today’s episode is going to give you a taste of it with my special guest and dear friend, Rachael Tvrdy, who is the Director of Family Life for the Diocese of Lincoln. On the heels of completing a Betrayal Trauma Religious Leader Training with the Association of Partners of Sex Addicts Trauma Specialists, Rachael graciously agreed to come on the show and receive coaching in support of her launching a ministry to serve women affected by betrayal trauma. Coaching is a future-focused collaboration and this session was to help Rachael create more clarity and empower her to begin the work she has so clearly been called to. If you’ve ever had an idea for a personal apostolate or ministry within the church to one day help others, we pray this episode inspires and encourages you to begin in God’s good timing. Please join me in keeping Rachael and the women she will serve in this ministry in your prayers. 🙏🏼 ⭐️ Note/Disclaimer: APSATS () is a non-profit organization that provides professional training certification and research for partners of addicts and those who treat them. For the purposes of this podcast, the term sex addiction or sex addict is used synonymously with pornography or porn addict, or any compulsory sexual behavior. The model of APSATS differs from other sexual addiction models as it focuses on the traumatic impact of sexual addiction on the partner or spouse. As well, APSATS focuses on empirically researched theories and skills to effectively provide trauma-informed treatment for the partner or spouse. 🖥️ Links: To find a counselor who provides treatment for partners or wives of addicts, please search for CSATS (certified sexual addiction therapists) in your local area ✝️ Reach out to Rachael Tvrdy 👋🏼 📲 Connect with Andy☀️ ➡️ Instagram: ➡️ Website: ➡️ Book a discovery call . ✨ ➡️ Soulful Sunday Reflections: I’d love to hear your comments, questions, suggestions about the show! ⬇️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Thank you so much! xoxo Andy & co. /episode/index/show/5587df0d-0198-456d-8f32-a58917cdd1b3/id/33361322
